The Florists^ Review 



Mabch 20. 1919. 



C. Weber, Jr., presided. Secretary Oscar 

 Ruff was attending to his duties and 

 remarked, "Watch us grow from 

 now on," 



After the regular opening business 

 was transacted, the chairman appointed 

 a new committee for publicity, consist- 

 ing of F. C. Weber, Jr., J. j. Windier 

 and C. C. Young. It was decided that 

 the members allow only twenty per cent 

 commission on all orders received by 

 them from outside parties. A discussion 

 followed as to the case of one retailer 

 buying stock from another retailer and 

 whether he should charge twenty per 

 cent more for them than what he paid 

 for them in the wholesale market. It 

 was finally decided by vote that this 

 would be a fair profit and the motion 

 was carried. 



The secretary was ordered to send a 

 letter to all retailers advising them of 

 the new plan of raising funds for pub- 

 licity and inviting them to attend the 

 next meeting, which will take place 

 next Monday, March 24, in the Knights 

 of Columbus hall at 8 p. m. 



Vaxious Notes. 



The new publicity committee is com- 

 plete and held its first meeting March 

 18, at headquarters. Those who com-

 Weber, Jr., J. J. Windier and C. C. 

 Young, of the Retail Florists' Associa- 

 tion; W. C. Smith, H. G. Berning and 

 Frank Windier, of the Wholesale Flo- 

 rists' Association. This committee will 

 handle all the florists' publicity for 

 this year on the Milwaukee plan of 

 raising funds. 



Alex Lurie, horticulturist of the Mis- 

 souri Botanical Garden, returned from 

 a business trip at Chicago and Detroit 

 last week, spending three days in each 

 city. 



Eli Mioux, formerly with the Bour- 

 det Floral Co., now of Carlyle, 111., spent 

 March 13 in the city, and his many 

 friends were glad to know that he is 

 having good success on his own place. 



Grimm & Gorlv recently bought the 

 lots at 3028, 3223 and 3418 Washington 

 avenue, on which they will in the near 

 future build garages and supply houses. 

 Frank Gorly represented the firm in the 

 purchase. 



Joseph Hauser, of Webster Groves, is 

 cutting a grand lot of violets, with large 

 flowers and extra long stems. He says 

 there will be no violets this year for 

 Easter, but plenty of Spencer sweet 

 peas, as he has a great crop coming on. 



W, A. Rowe, of Kirkwood, is sporting 

 a new red sedan and A. H. Ahner, also 

 of Kirkwood, has a new pleasure car, a 

 Chevrolet. It is said W. J. Edwards will 

 soon be out with a new Marmon. 



Otto Sander's new, handsome cash 

 register worked overtime last week. 

 Miss Esther Schndeicr, head designer 

 here, was on the sick list a few days 

 last week. ,T. J. B.
